4.6. Maintenance and Care
4.6.1. Oil level
z
Check the oil level in the engine sump
daily with a dipstick. The level should be
between the two notches cut into the
dipstick and should never be allowed to
drop below the lower notch.
CAUTION :
Do not add so much engine oil that
the oil level rises above the max.
marking on the dipstick. Over filling
will result in damage to the engine.
z
The oil level should be checked with the
engine horizontal and only after it has
been shut down for about 5 minutes.
4.6.2. Oil drainage
z
With the engine at operating
temperature, remove the oil drain valve
on the oil sump and the oil cartridge bowl
and allow the old oil to drain off
completely. Use a vessel of sufficient
size to ensure that the oil does not
overflow. Refit the oil drain valve.
CAUTION :
The oil is hot-risk of scalding.
Do not touch the oil drain plug with
bare fingers. Oil is an environmental
hazard. Handle ii with care!
